Figure Lengend Snippet: Effects of AK-7 on the SirT2/Ac-FoxO1/PPARγ signaling pathway in the PFC of OBX mice. A - F Expression levels of SirT2 ( A ), Ac-FoxO1 ( B ), p-FoxO1 ( C ), PPARγ ( D ), p-AKT (Thr308) ( E ), and p-AKT (Ser473) ( F ) in the PFC of OBX mice. G: Representative immunofluorescence images showing spatial overlap of SirT2, Ac-FoxO1, and PPARγ with the microglial marker Iba1 in the PFC of OBX mice treated with AK-7. H: Proposed mechanistic model of AK-7 action. A – F One-way ANOVA; A F (2, 24) = 8.965, p = 0.0012; B F (2, 24) = 7.719, p = 0.0026; C F (2, 24) = 5.336, p = 0.0121; D F (2, 24) = 8.487, p = 0.0016; E F (2, 18) = 6.321, p = 0.0083; F F (2, 18) = 13.48, p = 0.0003. All data are presented as mean ± SEM. *: p < 0.05, **: p < 0.01 vs. sham + vehicle group. #: p < 0.05, ##: p < 0.01 vs. OBX + vehicle group
